Artist Unknown

An unknown Diné silversmith who simply engraved “OG” on the back created this large rectangular stone turquoise ring. The artist set the light blue stone with a brown spider web matrix in a sawtooth bezel and then set it in a twisted wire frame. The face rests on a split shank. The ring dates from the mid-20th Century.
